Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Russell was my saving grace
Dr Russell was amazing he is very good at explaining your situation and never sugar coated anything. Very straight forward and to the point. He comes in and is in no rush he listens to your questions and replies with a high grade of knowledge. His nurses can’t be left out because they too was awesome caring soft spoken as they know the pain your going through. His team is always making sure you are top priority. They totally saved my life and I pray for each of them daily.

My husband and I both have been treated by Dr. Russell at the Mobile Infirmary Cancer Center. I had rectal cancer in 2014 and my husband had Prostate Cancer in 2008. His staff was excellent, his "bedside manner" was the best, his facility is clean and pleasant and I cannot think of one bad thing to say about the entire experience. We are both CANCER FREE now and all thanks to GOD and to John Russell!!!

I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Russell. He spends as much time as you need explaining the radiation procedures and answering your questions. He never treats you as anything less than a person with concerns that deserve to be addressed.
